[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. DC is in private so I do think private schools can be great for certain kids but definitely a disproportionate amount of kids we know who go do switch out of public to private have some learning or social issues.

It makes sense because many of the just UMC families try to start out in public because that's why they moved to this district in the first place but then their kid grows up and the public school doesn't work out for one reason or another.[/quote]

Sorry, but this just isn’t true for top schools. They aren’t some repository for kids who can’t hack it in public schools.[/quote]

In my opinion, privates come in different sizes and some can serve students with disabilities better than others. The key with privates is there are choices so you can find one that fits your child’s needs and interests.

In public, it’s a large take it or leave it model. Most children are underserved and the class sizes make it easier for students to be ignored. For students with IEPs and 504 plans, services and accommodations are routinely not provided so students with disabilities struggle to just have equal access to the curriculum.
